This code has an integer overflow or sign extension bug which was caught
by gcc-13:
kernel/sched/debug.c:341:57: error: integer overflow in expression of
type 'long int' results in '-100663296' [-Werror=overflow]
341 | static unsigned long fair_server_period_max = (1 << 22) * NSEC_PER_USEC; /* ~4 seconds */
The result is that "fair_server_period_max" is set to 0xfffffffffa000000
(585 years) instead of instead of 0xfa000000 (4 seconds) that was
intended.
Fix this by changing the type to shift from (1 << 22) to (1UL << 22).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
